Best Time of Year for Tanzania Safaris
Zebras Grazing
The best time of year for Tanzania safaris is during the annual wildebeest migration that takes place during the summer and early autumn.
The migration goes from the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania to the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.
The wildebeest migration usually takes place from July to September, although dates vary every year and it is impossible to predict the exact timing.
The best time to see the wildebeest migration in Tanzania’s Serengeti is June to August when the wildebeest cross the Grumeti River in Tanzania.

Wildebeest Migration
The annual wildebeest migration in Tanzania usually happens from July to September.
The migration takes place between Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park and Kenya’s Masai Mara National Reserve.
Thousands of wildebeest and zebras make the seasonal migration in search of food during this time, and predators such as lions take advantage of their movements.
The wildebeest migration to the western part of the Serengeti National Park takes place around June.
From around July to August the wildebeest cross the Grumeti River in Tanzania on their way to Kenya.
From around December to January they migrate back from Kenya’s Masai Mara to the Serengeti in Tanzania.
